BEEN TO HELP FILE NO LUCK

Motion menu's (the way you would logically think of them) are a little more complicated under DVD Lab.

What you need to do is this:

1. With your menu open, go to Menu->Export->As Overlay, and save the file somewhere. What this will give is a transparent background upon which your buttons are placed (No motion background or anything).
2. Now open up your favorite video editor, and put down the video you were planning to use as your motion menu background, and then take that .PNG file from step 1, and put it ontop. Render.
3. Take that rendered video and use THAT as the motion menu background. You'll still need to create buttons and regions, but everything will show all the time.

Good luck, ask for more help if you need.
